[Webtest] cruisecontrol

[webtest@lists.canoo.com]

Not actually sure who I met, when I went back and reread the emails!  What I
am trying to do (and maybe there is a better tool out there) is to verify
that status of a couple different web based applications.

We have used Whatsup gold relatively successfully to monitor services,
however, when it comes to monitoring a web application, it is very clunky.
It seems that the scripts that I run to validate my various builds, if they
where made non intrusive (not changing any significant data etc in the app)
would also be the perfect way to verify that everything in a web app is
working, from database access, to ldap logins.  However, I need a framework
to trigger the script that browses the website, and if there is a failure,
to generate an email.  Additionally, I would like to navigate multiple
different sites, and get an email whenever each one dies.

It seems (though I haven't dug into it) that CC could be that engine, but I
am not sure if there aren't other "schedulers" that are more Ant/webtest
friendly.

Or, if there are other better tools out there that could do what WebTest
does...

Hi Eric,

I'm not sure, whether you mean David or me with "you". :-)

However, there is a CruiseControl running that instantly builds
WebTest whenever there is a change in the CVS.

You will find the corresponding cruise.xml that steers the
CruiseControl in the root of the CVS module as well as other
concerned files like emailmap.properties and cruisecontrol.properties.

The contents is supposed to be self-explaining :-)

The CruiseControl used for building and selftesting WebTest doesn't
differ at all from setups used for any other Web Application.

cheers
Mittie
